Christina Griffin is a counsellor registered as NCPS with three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, self-esteem and depression. Christina aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can speak freely about what matters to them.

She listens first and helps clients shape clear, manageable goals. Sessions often involve talking through immediate concerns, identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, and trying small steps to change how day-to-day life feels.

Background and approach

Christina uses approaches that suit each person rather than a one-size-fits-all method. Clients may bring issues such as abandonment worries, attachment difficulties, blended family challenges, or communication problems. Christina also supports people coping with chronic illness or pain, caregiver stress, eating and body-image concerns, and the aftermath of separation or domestic violence.

She works with problems linked to control, dependence, codependency and commitment doubts. Her approach draws on client-centred methods, cognitive behavioural ideas, existential questions about meaning, mindfulness practices, and psychodynamic thinking about past patterns. These are used in straightforward ways to help people understand themselves and try new ways of coping.

Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. To start, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules sessions according to therapist availability.

How Christina’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own perspective and pace. The counsellor listens without judgement and helps the person find their own solutions, which can be helpful for building self-esteem and working through relationship worries.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. In sessions this often means identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying simple behavioural experiments to reduce anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christina will discuss different methods and try what fits best for a person’s goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made over time based on how someone responds.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets people talk face to face from different places, phone calls suit quieter audio-only check-ins, live chat can work for brief focused conversations, and text messaging supports ongoing touchpoints between sessions. These options offer flexibility for fitting therapy around work, care duties and daily life.
